I have a Tmaxx 2.5 i purchased around Christmas it ran very well until I brought it to a bmx park and did some jumps it suddenly began overheating to around 320F before that the temps never got over 260 it was tuned richer than breaking settings.

Have a 3.3 with a tune slight rich . Idle as low as possible but still tends to move when I stay it . High rpm when I lift off the grown as the wheel spins and dies when I brake .

I have a kyosho dst which had been sitting in a garage for about a year and I changed the glowplug and fuel lines and set the needles to the factory setting and got tuning. my problem here is that it runs good on high rpm but on low rpm it doesn't want to stay idling or if it does the...

I am interested in purchasing a Nitro Car. I currently have an Associated SC10RS. I race at a local indoor track. I am interested in getting a Nitro, because of the challenge, sound, smell, and everything great about a Nitro. I want a buggy or on-road car that I can rip around my cul-de-sac. The...

Hi guys. I don't know anything about servos. How to choose good ones (both throttle and steering) for a 1/8 nitro truggy? What characteristics do they have? What to look at during comparing? Any brand suggestions? I'm investigating the topic at the moment, but the majority of reviews are dated...

Hey guys. My Savage has been losing fuel pressure from the main fuel line going to the carb. It will run a few good powerful runs and pop wheelies then cut out and die. When I take the fuel line off the carb there is no fuel coming out of the line. It's like there has never been fuel run through...

I've been a basher for years now, ever since I got into it almost 20 years ago now. I'd like to get into racing but I've always been a traxxas guy. Threads every where say they're just not worth dumping the money into them for racing due to lack of durability. I get it. I would like to do 1/10...

I recently got my hands on an old HPI mini RS4 and i'm looking to upgrade it. I've looked for it on the HPI website and they seem to have taken down all pages regarding it so no help there, but i want to upgrade it or at least find compatible parts for it. I'm looking for hop-ups or replacements...

Hey guys, my Redcat Shockwave has been serving me fairly well for a while, but I've run into a problem. As the title states, the engine is not revving nearly as high as it should, so it only goes to a crawl on full throttle. The high-speed screw is in the same place it was when it was optimally...

Nitro noob here. After running a wot pass with a warmed up engine it makes a funny sound. It sounds like a normal engine then it goes ding ding ding and back to normal. The ding sounds start after letting off throttle and last for 1-2 seconds. Details below: Savage 4.6 truck and engine...

So I start my car up and then let it run for about 15 seconds before driving and every time I go near the throttle it makes a weird sound and barely accelerates any ideas on what it could be?
